NOT TO BE DEsECRATED.

The people of New York are very ready to resent any attempt to make an improper use of their magnificent Central Park, and during the last few days there has been decided stir caused by the intention of the officers of the First brigade, N G. s. N. Y, to hold the annual parade of the brigade in the park. But the officers having decided not to press the matter, there is peace once more.
 One of the most interesting contributions to the discussion is the letter of Mayor Hew- it to the General commanding the brigade He rises to the height of the occasion as fol- lows: I observe that you particularly object to the use of the word ''desecration'' in my letter to you. I am sorry for this, as | used the word deliberately and with full knowl- edge of it's import. In my letter to Cover nor Hill, written before I thought it my duty to write to you, I had characterized the propo- sition as vandalism" The more I reflected on the subject the more I became convinced that this word wes not strong enough to characterize the outrage which was about to be perpetrated, and hence, in addressing you, l endeavored to fndan epithet which would give better expression to tke general senti- ment of indignation with which the proposed legislation is regarded by our fellow citizens. Yes, General, it is dissertation. 'FThe groves were Gods first temple" The fras rant odors which exhale from the flowers of the field the infinite variety of color in grass, sh1 db and tree, the graceful motion of the foliage stirred by the gentle and refreshing breeze, the varying phases of light and shade, of sunshine and darkness, all tend to lea1 the thoughts of men from nature ''up to natures God" To interfere in any way with such serene enjoyment, and above all to introduce ''the rude alarms of war; upon such peace- full scene, which more than anything else in 1 great city, peopled by millions of toilers, suggests the idea of heaven and divine love, 1 is dissertation. It is, indeed, sacrilege from which I trust we shall be saved by the interposition of higher power than the leg islature which passed this measure without waiting to hear from the local authorities of the city.
 Of course the brigade could not parade in the park without doing a great deal of dam age. Its officers have done wisely in feeling public opinion and looming down" graceful ly, and Mayor Hewitt has shown that he is a man of the right stamp.

what seems on first examination to be a fairly acceptable back-down on the part of the legislature. The public, however, would not be content with such a form of policy. Only when the assessors rated the buildings at full valuation Ca proceeding not very pop ular in most communities) could the insured obtain three-fourths of what the property was worth in case of total loss, save by special agreements. This recommendation is, how ever consistent with the position assumed by New Hampshire in the matter of overinsur- ance We think the fire insurance compa- nies would hail such law with pleasure, it being much more favorable to their interests than the old law

 A French physician has been giving some
 counsel to smokers. He has found that the
 disease most frequently induced by smoking
 is fatty degeneration of the heart; but he is
 smoker himself, and does not advise his
 patients to forswear long habit. That, he
 thinks, would cause their last state to be
 worse than their first. Instead of doing this,
 he lays down a code of 1ules for the guidance
 of smokers, to which, it is to be feared, they
 will not pay as much attention as they might
 Never smoke fasting, says the doctor. It hes
 hitherto been supposed that smoking wes an
 excellent antidote to hunger. Do not keep 8 cigar too long inthe mouth, and do not habit
 ually smoke strong Paltagas, are excellent counsels. The doctors final advice is that
 cigar-holders should be frequently cleaned.
 The movement to abolish the dual organ
 ization in the churches of Massachusetts has progressed to the extent that the State senate has passed a bill which provides for incorporation in simple form. Says the Worcester Spy: Few of the arrangements of our ancestors have been a greater source of litigation in recent years than that of the society and the parish, and the most ardent admirer of ancient institutions will hardly regret ths change. The bill, as passed by | the senate, provides for the incorporation of | church by it's resident members, in the
 usual manner in which secular corporations
 are formed, and provides further for the conveyance to it of the church property. It | will be seen that by this simple arrangement the parish, which in most of the existing Congregational churches holds the property,
 is practically abolished. The act is, of course, permissory, but it applies to existing churches ! as well as those to be formed in the future
 It has yet to be acted upon by the house.
 | In his inaugural address Governor Sawyer of New Hampshire recommended that the | laws be so amended that it shall be the duty
 of the assessors in valuing property for the purpose of taxation to value buildings and | land upon which they are located separately, | and that the limit of the insurers liability, when there is a total loss, shall not | exceed three quarters of the assessors valuation, except by special agree | ment between insurer and insured.
 The Boston Commercial Bulletin thus criti-
 cises this recommendation: This not only in
 inmates very strongly that the present valued policy law is a failure in the estimation ot 1 the governor and his advisers, but hints at

Cows and Wolves.

J. Fellows, locating agent of this
place; Mr.. Preston, of Meade Center,
Kan, and MIR. Curry, of Ochiltree
County. were out looking at the coun-
try in the eastern part of Ochiltree.
They had just passed bunch of cattle
and were about three hundred yards
distant, when. looking back, they saw
gang of eight large gray wolves at
tack a cow and calf that were a short
distance from the herd, but the cattle
gathered round and routed the wolves.
The wolves soon discovered another
calf and made dash for it. The cow
did her best to keep them away, but
they were too many for her, and they
soon got this calf down. The cattle in
the herd came to the rescue of the calf
again, routed the wolves and they
soon disappe cared. When the specta-
tors of the battle drove down they
found the calf was not dead, but pretty
badly mangled. (Ter. 1rib-

4 Fashion ie Mexican Churches That Might
Well Be Copied.
On the occasion of our visit to More
liza, Mex, the wives of the Govern
ment officials in the party, were ex-
PEELED from the cathedral during SER
vice because they retained their hats.
The only American lady in the COM
pany had DOTTED her towering head
gear on the threshold, and she was al
lowed to enter, and even treated with
distinction.
The houses here are made from a
pinkish trachyte, from a quarry near
the city, which takes on, however, an
unpleasant aspect after some exposure
to the weather. The market is clean,
but rather shabby. and at times on
Tuesday, the market day, can be
bought various sorts of beautiful pot
terry, including one variety exquisite in
its smooth, dull finish, red in hue and
ornamented on the sides with project
ing masks, of the true Indian type,
touched up with white and black for
the eyeball, brows, ETC., and altogether
very striking.
There is picture of an old tumble
down ruin of convent-there are sew
eral, in fact-but this is called Ell Car
men, and prowling about its precincts
l met Morelian, a licentiate, who is
an enthusiastic antiquarian. He took
me all over the old structure, some
of whose better cells have been re-
paired and are now occupied by indi
gent students.
We tarried until after nightfall, and
l never saw prettier effect than that
which met my eye, mounted on a
carven high-backed chair in the high
music gallery. while our Pickering
candle threw faint rays down into the
body of the church, blending with the
moonbeams streaming whitley through
the dome.
My old friend showed me a wondrous
painting-a fragment some two feet
square, evidently cut from large cam
vas, and supposed to be Rubens. 1t
is head of the Christ, and never, in
original or copy, have l seen another
at once so full of tenderness and
majesty. in front of the convent is
gloomy little plazuela, full of rank
growing plants and tall, gaunt ell
calyptus. l remarked this forbidding
aspect and my cicerone replied that
this square had been the place of public
execution during the occupation by the
French, and that scarcely family in
town but had seen spilled there the
blood of some of its members, and the
place was plague spot on our city for
years. Our friend, with his own
hands, had set out trees and shrubbery,
and still even to the eye of a stranger,
"here over all there hung cloud of
fear, sense of mystery the spirit
daunted. Cor. San Francisco Csron-
